Pros

The management team is encouraging.

Cons

The leads are recycled. Half the people I got to answer the phone said they had spoken to a rep half a dozen times already.

Pros

Work from home or anywhere

Cons

Misleading about job description and pay. The company uses bait and switch tactics on its customers to make a sale. You work 10 hours a day every day including weekends. Management always blames you for everything, it's never them or there 10 year old leads. You're basically working for free everyday making them money.

Unorganized & doesn’t care about their employees

Pros

Clerical work & you don’t have to talk on the phones all day long.

Cons

The training is not structured well & does not set you up for success. Supervisors are all over the place and they don’t conduct one on one meeting to see how you’re progressing. I worked they for little less than a year and only can remember my supervisor meeting with me 2 times. Not to mention they are unrealistically STRICT about attendance, but fail to provide with an attendance policy for you to abide by. It’s doesn’t matter how well you do your job or what unfortunate even t happens in your life. They don’t care they will fire you for being 2 minutes tardy. There is no grace period for your attendance and if you come in early to prevent from being late/tardy you will not get paid for it not will it cancel out for the times you weren’t able to clock on time. They treat you like a robot not employee, better yet a human.
